To
Be 'Born Again'Is a metaphor
Jesus used as reference to the ritual of Baptism.

JOH
3: 3 Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily,
verily, I say
unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.

JOH
3: 5 Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto
thee, Except
a man be born of water and of the Spirit,
he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. Cliff:
water and the spirit means baptism and then you pray for the Holy
Ghost. Metaphorically,
repenting is the contract you must read and accept and baptism is the
signature you must draw to bind this agreement between you and God.

LUK
11: 13 If ye then, being evil, know how to give
good gifts unto
your children: how much more shall your heavenly Father give the Holy
Spirit
to them that ask him?

JOH
3: 5 Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto
thee, Except
a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the
kingdom
of God.

PE1
1: 23 Being born again, not of corruptible seed,
but of incorruptible,
by the word of God, which liveth and abideth for ever.

Do
not believe what Joyce
Meyer and false ministries like her's
are teaching you (if you want to be a Christian) that to believe that
Jesus
died for our sins will get you to enter heaven: no way, says God: you
must
repent and baptize, and never deliberately commit sin again -
from
then on you can only slip, make errors, not commit premeditated sins like
fornication, murder
etc.

RepentanceOnce
you have read the Gospel
and have fully accepted it as the truth, you can then enter the phase
of
repentance and feel true remorse for your past sins - this
just happens;
you can't do it by choicet. You may be dragged to tears or just feel deep
regret; either way this will be a very sincere and painful
feeling
in your heart. Without this you are not ready for the Baptism. Continue
in prayer, reading, studying and questioning. Once you are ready
to baptize you will consciously decide to discard all that God approves
of and embrace all that God approves of and commands you to do. Now you
are ready to be Baptized and receive forgiveness for sins you have
committed upto this moment.
MARK
1: 4
John did baptize in the wilderness, and preach the baptism of
repentance
for the remission of sins.

Baptism: a
word derived from Greek baptizo: "immersing" Baptizing
is responding
to the call of God to Repentand
wash away our sins. It is not something you just do, or can be
forced
to do; but it is something that happens to you as you
surrender:
repent, then walk into that water to be submerged by one 'in the name of
Jesus Christ' Remember "in the name of the father, the son and the holy ghost" was added later and is false". Only this way you are born again. You first
believe
that which you read, then you feel repentance and proceed to discard
all that God rejects and embrace everything Jesus taught you, then
you baptize - and you do it by your own
will.

Also, those that are really
called, are granted wisdom and understanding by God, so they understand
that they must first get married, then baptize; for else they are in
serious
danger of committing fornication (sexual intercourse with married or
engaged persons) as they have known the flesh before
and
shall naturally desire it - they would build their
house upon
sand, though Christ teaches them to build their house upon a Rock.
MAT
7: 21

Baptism
is the first of the
two sacraments conveyed to us by Christ. There is but one
baptism available to be executed by men, and not two or three. And it
can only be achieved through repentance. Hence the term "baptism of
repentance'. Indeed, we can distinguis four kinds of
baptism:

The baptism of John the Baptist: it was from God. MAT 21: 25 The baptism of the first believers, by John the Baptist, through submergence in water, but pryor to the baptism of Jesus, thus not in his name, but solely through repenting and confessing their sins: MAT 3: 5-6 . The baptism of The Apostles with the Holy Ghost. ACTS: 2:3
The baptism of believers, through submergence in water and in the name of Jesus Christ. ACTS: 2:38

We must read the Gospel,
understand it, accept it, repent truly in heart then, through our own
will,
walk in to the Baptism and baptize into the church of
Christ.
Baptism without repentance is no Baptism but merely a quick
dip -
and many are so baptized. These are the lukewarm with a 'Christian
Tag',
not Christians. Jesus tells us that he will spew them out.

Matt.18:3-4
- And
said, Verily I (Jesus) say unto you, Except ye be converted, and become
as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven. (4)
Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, the same
is greatest in the kingdom of heaven. Cliff: Jesus is using
'humble your self like a child' as a mataphor for baptism. Like a
baby is submerged in to the water you allow another to do unto you
(humble your self through
repentance
and baptism).

Once we have accepted the
Gospel and Christ and have surrendered our selves to him, we must
Baptize.Baptism
is know as 'To be
Born Again'; to be a new person as the old one is dead and the new one
is born.A
wise one whom builds his
house upon a rock, will first get married, trying his partner
thoroughly
with much prayer, at least for one year, perhaps longer, then take the
baptism. For, after this, no fornication may take place.

Act 2:38 Then Peter
said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you 'in the name of
Jesus Christ' for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift
of
the Holy Ghost. (note that they so received it, direct from the apostles; but we must pray for
the
Holy Ghost, so that God may bestow it upon us, says Christ).

Then Jesus came from Galilee
to John to be baptized by him in the Jordan River.3:14
But John tried to prevent
him, saying, I need to be baptized by you, and yet you come to
me?
So Jesus replied to him, Let it happen now, for it is right for us to
fulfil
all righteousness. Then John yielded to him. After Jesus was
baptized,
just as he was coming up out of the water, the heavens opened and he
saw
the Spirit of God descending like a dove and coming on him. And a voice
from heaven said, This is my one dear Son; in him I take great delight.Note:
we don't read
of multiple baptisms, but one, there is only one 'true' baptism.If
you had a fake one, where
your parents took you to the baptism, then it does not count as being
baptized,
for you need to repent, then baptize - all through your own
will.

Are You
Baptized?a)
- If anyone has persuaded or cohersed you to a place and baptized you there or had you
baptized by another, you are not baptized. Why?
Because you are
called to Repent en then Baptize in to the Church of Christ.
As a
very little child you could not even repent for your sins, for you did
not understand the matter and so you were not baptized.

b) -
If you did not understand the Gospel or did not even read it before you
baptized, or if you did not understand 'Repentance' and you
then
baptized (let us so call it) you did the act of going in to the water
but
you were not baptized, for you had no understanding of: Faith (believing), Repentance, Baptism.
But God can forgive you, for you were a fool or you were mislead by others. If now
you understand and you can actually 'feel' repentance, then you are
ready
to baptize.

c) -
If you were baptized by any person who did not put you under the water
( baptize) and then lifted you out of the water again, you are not
baptized
either; for you are called to 'Repent' and 'Baptize' in the
name
of Jesus Christ.
In any of the above cases
you can yet properly baptize and, this time, as you really understand what you
are doing, you will be baptized.

Who Can Baptize:Any
Believer who has repented
and has been baptized to become a Christian can baptize a believer; for
now they also are holy (unlike the ministers of men) and are sound in
the
eyes of God. Were you ever baptized by a filth (pedo minister etc.) who was not at
all
baptized, but did you have no knowledge thereof, well, you are then
still
baptized, for you walked in to the baptism by your own choice and,
knowing
God through his dealings in the bible, God will not blame you for it,
for
you did not have the knowledge that the one baptizing you was a
rogue.
But then, I personally very much believe that a unbeliever also can
baptize
a believer, be there nobody else to execute this for the believer.

How To Baptize:One
can be baptized in any
water, anywhere and at any time. This because it is only
written
to baptize in water. One
must be baptized in the
name of jesus Christ, as it is written and has been done in the days of
Jesus - remember
that the
lukewarm have no chance with God.
The quote: the son is like the father, where Jesus explains
that
he is like God, can be compared to the authority of a Deputy Judge
compared
to that of a judge: to us, both have equal power, yet one is
the
greater power.

If
you believe that you were baptized incorrectly, then do it again.
Either you were baptised the first time and thus the socond time
changed nothing at all, or the socond time you will be baptized for
real.

Baptizing Children:Children should not be baptized as when a child was brought to Jesus he did not
baptize them, as it would surely contradict his doctrine, but
he
blessed them: see Matt.18:3-4.
Children are as we should become, after the Baptism - so why
baptize
them? The Holy among us should Bless Them, as Jesus
did.

Many Christians pointed at
this, so then the churches invented the name 'Christening' to
fool
those who are not at all called by God but by man, to bind as
many
fools as soon as possible to their church. Paedobaptism is
not from
Christ, but a fraud.Be
ye children of your God
and not the children on men!

Hebrews 10:12But
when this man (Jesus)
had offered for all time one sacrifice for sins, he sat down at the
right
hand of God. (
That sacrifice is 'Baptism') for, because he brought us the Gospel, of
which the very heart is the Baptism of Repentance, he was crucified:
for he came because we have sinned, starting with Eve!

Hebrews 10:26 If
we deliberately keep
on sinning after we have received the knowledge of the truth (Baptism
after
repentance), no sacrifice for sins is left...and so we shall just burn after our resurrection.

The only forgiveness after baptism is the forgiveness for accidental transgressions
(which
are not sins) - not fornication! but sins like sudden waves
of unjustifiable
hatred (hate for evil is justifiable as we must hate evil to love
good),
thoughtless deceit, accidental lies told to the harm of others,
accidental,
thoughtless theft etc. Our merciful God tells us how
to
find forgiveness for these sins. Sacrifice to God is a contrite
heart! We
read this clearly and it is perfect! He only, can see if you
regret
your deed, for then your heart is contrite and he shall forgive you!Psa.
51:17
The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit: a broken and a contrite
heart,
O God, thou wilt not despise.

Remember the mourning of the people of Nineveh,
in the story of Jonah? God tells Jonah to tell them that within 40 days
the city would be destroyed, for they sinned against God (but mind,
there was no baptism of repentance then). They mourned and they
were spared God's wrath, for their grieve was very real; and only God
could see it.

SOME BAPTISM QUOTES FROM THE GOSPEL

Jesus
MAT 26: 28 For this is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many for the remission of sins.
(Cliff: Jesus tells you that to remember that he was nailed to the
cross and stabbed for what he has brought us: Faith, Repentace and
Baptism = Salvation: the result of a successful Baptism ritual)

HEB 10: 12 But this man, after he had offered one sacrifice for sins for ever, sat down on the right hand of God;
HEB 10: 13 From henceforth expecting till his enemies be made his footstool.
HEB 10: 14 For by one offering he hath perfected for ever them that are sanctified.
HEB 10: 15 Whereof the Holy Ghost also is a witness to us: for after that he had said before,
HEB 10: 16 This is the covenant that I will make with them after
those days, saith the Lord, I will put my laws into their hearts, and
in their minds will I write them;

ACT 2: 38 Then
Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the
name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive
the gift of the Holy Ghost.
ACT 10: 43 To him give all the prophets witness, that through his
name whosoever believeth in him shall receive remission of sins.ROM 3: 25 Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God;
HEB 9: 22 And almost all things are by the law purged with blood; and without shedding of blood is no remission.

LUK 1: 77 To give knowledge of salvation unto his people by the remission of their sins,

HEB 10: 17 And their sins and iniquities will I remember no more.HEB 10: 18 Now where remission of these is, there is no more offering for sin.

...And The
Gates Of Hell Shall Not Prevail Against ItThrough the ages Catholics
and other Nicolaitans tried to defy the above quotation by Jesus, oppressing
and murdering many, deceiving and misleading many more, but they have not
and shall not prevail against 'His Church'.
